Ashley Goatham is my great great great grandfather as my great grandmother is Ada Spocter who is now 100 I am being completely honest and if you need proof just ask for details. Anyway i am looking t recover anything that he owned or owns and I would like any information anyone could get on ths topic as I would like my nanny to have a look at them before she passes. The last name has since changed.
For those who don't know Ashely Goatham was in the 1/24th and in the battle of Isandlwana he was KIA anything of his possesions I must recover for my nanny or just for the sake of keeping them in the family.
